On April 1, 2021, 16-year-old Chaynce King-Henderson was fatally shot around 1 a.m. in the 2200 block of Berryhill Street in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The shooting happened in the backyard of his grandmother’s home; he ran into a neighbor’s yard and collapsed and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Chaynce was a 10th-grade student at SciTech who worked at Hershey Park. He loved rap music and hoped to make a career as a rapper, having already recorded in a studio. He was originally from Atlanta, Georgia, and attended Faith Deliverance Church in Harrisburg. His story was later included in a documentary titled Our Boys about gun violence in the city.

On August 12, 2021, Harrisburg Police arrested 15-year-old Kaewon Kashif Layton and charged him as an adult with first-degree murder, third-degree murder and multiple firearms offenses; Layton was held in Dauphin County Prison without bail. Did anyone in the area know Chaynce or see anything that night that could help fill in what happened?
